Hi,

I wonder if it is possible to set a lookup using javascript. According the
sdk, I should set the id, the name and the typename which I do. However,
nothing is displayed. Is it possible or is only possible from server side?
 


Hi,
Yes, it is possible and it is exactly like how it is mentioned in CRM SDK.

//Create an array to set as the DataValue for the lookup control.
var lookupData = new Array();
//Create an Object add to the array.
var lookupItem= new Object();
//Set the id, typename, and name properties to the object.
lookupItem.id = '{1AAC1363-01A1-DB11-8432-0003FF9CE217}';
lookupItem.typename = 'account';
lookupItem.name = 'A Bike Store';
// Add the object to the array.
lookupData[0] = lookupItem;
// Set the value of the lookup field to the value of the array.
crmForm.all.parentaccountid.DataValue = lookupData;
